Hello, my name is Genevieve Rodrigues, and I am a cybersecurity student with a professional background in information technology. I currently work full time as an IT Support Specialist and previously served in the United States Marine Corps as a Data Systems Administrator, where I supported secure systems and mission-critical operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
